Sonoff ZBDongle_e problem

kiro1245 · May 10, 2024, 7:54am

Good day to all.
Has anyone encountered the problem of the firmware crashing on the Sonoff ZBDongle-E?
In devices it is defined as USB–Enhanced-Serial ch9102. The driver does not install (it says that an up-to-date or new version of the driver has been installed). When I try to connect via Flash Programmer 2 (I specify the CC2652P device), the program crashes.
I don’t know what to do. I find information that ZBDongle-E is experimental, and maybe i just should to order SONOFF ZB Dongle-P?

The dongle E is not a CC2652 device, it contains a silabs chipset.

Flash here:
SONOFF Dongle-E, ZB-GW04, SMLIGHT SLZB07

I tried it to. After flash it was say like “flash is done”. But after all it doesn’t work.
And now, when i try to set cp2102 driver windows says “the best drivers for your device is already installed” and nothing changes.

How do you run HA ?

kiro1245 · May 10, 2024, 11:17am

Virtual Machine in Virtual Box.
OS where i try install dongle - win10.

You don’t need to do anything with the dongle in Windows, just pass it through to the VM.

I did it, now Zigbee2MQTT says (:

Here’s my settings:

In device manager = COM3.
Zigbee2MQTT serial:

Your Zigbee2MQTT is still wrong. Maybe show your Zigbee2MQTT configuration.

kiro1245 · May 11, 2024, 5:52am

LiQuid_cOOled · May 11, 2024, 5:54am

Your mqtt setting is an issue. It’s been a minute since I was on a USB dongle, but the port settings ok. Test the mqtt settings and let us know.

Same error, i tried:

Set socat to disabled

Add

adapter: ezsp

to serial

LiQuid_cOOled · May 11, 2024, 6:32am

Is it disabled or false?

enabled: false

kiro1245 · May 11, 2024, 6:35am

Now it works (after adding adapter: ezsp). You’re all beautiful, thank you!!!

Share your YAML config for others…like this

data_path: /config/zigbee2mqtt
socat:
  enabled: false
  master: pty,raw,echo=0,link=/tmp/ttyZ2M,mode=777
  slave: tcp-listen:8485,keepalive,nodelay,reuseaddr,keepidle=1,keepintvl=1,keepcnt=5
  options: "-d -d"
  log: false
mqtt:
  server: mqtt://core-mosquitto:1883
serial:
  port: xxxxx

kiro1245 · May 11, 2024, 6:57am

Like this?

LiQuid_cOOled · May 11, 2024, 7:39am

Meant your current YAML

Your latest post has your adapter set to adapter: zstack

no worries
